Scott Bandy, Brandon Collins, Bob Fenwick, Kathleen Galvin, Satyendra Huja, DeDe Smith and Andrew Williams will be participating. This forum will focus on the uncomfortable yet important issues. While the parkway and water supply are important issues, so too are poverty, homelessness and the achievement gap, to name a few.
